The Anjarakandi River (ml:അഞ്ചരക്കണ്ടി പുഴ) is one of two major rivers that flow through the Kannur District of Kerala, India. The river originates from the bottom of Kutimalai in the protected forest areas of Kannur district. It travels for 48 km and flowing in west direction[1][2]. The river starting from Kutimalai, a small spring flows through Perumbupattu, about four kilometers into the forest. The river then collapses at 60 meters. Around 14 km again flows through the forest. It then goes to the locality near the village of Doda.
